Actually it's impossible to answer, BB, because for a couple of years in there I did in fact 'run free' and recorded none of my runs. There's also a handful of years missing from my data... doubtless the result of a failed backup somewhere and a change of PC. You know how it is... Funnily enough, I'm not so upset about the missing logs. It's all just part of the adventure, and to be honest, I could hang up the spreadsheet and run log-less again if the mood took me.
Run on my friend, that's the main thing.
Well I've scribbled down every single run since my mid-20s in a variety of different exercise books. I'm only sure of the location of the most recent one ... the others are hidden away in old shoe-boxes somewhere... After each run I'll note down the date, where I went, the time and an approximate distance.
All very old school I know...
I may also make random comments about weather, flora, fauna and any other distractions on the way.
Must dig them all out some time [running geek alert] it would make fascinating reading.
I should be able to calculate distance run since 1996 in an approximate, low-tec sort of way..
This feels a bit like a confession.. Yep, I've finally come out of the wardrobe..
Or the shoe box!
May As Well
